Very thorough test, we always tell people stay away from the laminated tarps but they still buy them I honestly didn't think with the CT1 hype you hear that these would be the results We've spent a lot of time and invested a huge amount into making Ms300 as good as it can possibly be, really pleased to see that it's paid off. Especially against a sealant juggernaut like CT1! Really appreciate you spending time to do this Jamie, great job Can't wait to see what other tests people do with it!
Your more than welcome bud I said I would 😊👍 and yeh I was quite shocked myself I new it was going to be a decent sealant but I wasn't expecting it to smash the others out of the park 🤣 I know what I'll be using for ponds from now on 👍 As I said at the end the only thing I would change or add would be a lid of some kind if possible 👍😊
Thanks Terry 😊 means alot coming from you 🙏 just thought I'd do everyday tests that people actually would use it for in ponds I was just shocked on how well the new ms300 did 👍😊
Really good video Jamie. I used ha6 on my grow on and I was getting worried haha Only used it on joining the waste pipe to the pvc part of the bottom drain and it’s held out well. Was cool seeing how it handled the plastics. That being said, the ms300 looks fantastic! I’ll be using that going forward 👍 Thanks for taking the time to do this test.
Thanks bud I'm glad it could help people in some way the HA6 did quite well on PVC pipe so you should be fine with that but yeh I'm definitely switching my everyday sealant from CT1 to MS300 👍
Very interesting! My next pond looks like I’m using my pond ms300! I used ct1 on my pond window, worked really well! I was also impressed on how it was so easy to wash off you hands unlike most silicones.
Hi Jamie, absolutely fantastic test / review mate, it really was. If I was you, it would now make me consider fitting (in-situ) your own custom boxweld liner to your new pond, like Matt (Koi Central) has. It would be a more straight forward task for yours. Yes, I love my puddle being fibreglassed, but it had its own hassles in other ways mate. Just a thought, that I’m sure you’ve already had…👍🏼
Thanks bud appreciate it 👍 and yeh I did have that thought many times but as its only a single skin of brick I wanted fiberglass for the added strength benefits that it brings otherwise I would have 👍
Normally it's completely gone after about 2 weeks but it would depend how thick it is to how long it would take to fully cure the smell Normally goes away about 7 days after it being fully cured 👍
Never heard of it to be honest 🤔 but I was just testing the 2 most popular against the new kid on the block and I was really shocked on how good it was especially how it preformed against ct1 which is know in the trade as one of the best 👌 👍
Nice video would have liked to have seen gold label in this test. I have to conclude the ha6 I have been using is useless and will be ripping it all out and resealing using a better silicone. I have just bought 3 tubes of this ms300 many thanks.
@@keepingitkoi stinks though I can’t find most things I see on you tube in US, at least I was able to order a Bakki shower from JS koi who ships to USA, so am excited for that. I’ll have to find a good sealant here at local Home Depot or Lowe’s. I guess I need to move to UK for my koi hobby lol 😂 💕
@Maureen K - Farmhouse Charms I just spoke to Carl he said yes he ships to the US and he also said its free shipping on 12 tubes or more it just calculates it at the checkout 👍 cwdsandbach.co.uk/products/mypond-ms300?sca_ref=3234414.TpyB6Dhuhr
I used clear ct1 to stick my glass windows to fibre glass . After 2 years the ct1 when weather is hot it starts leaking, first u can see the ct1 goes cloudy and not clear like normal then starts letting water through. Very weird as it stops leaking when winter comes. Wont be using it again as its very annoying. Iv even gone over the leaks with new ct1 but does the same after a few days .
Never heard of it doing that before 🤔 but certainly good to know maybe it's an issue with the clear version as people have been fitting pond windows with ct1 for many years, but after these tests I think I'll be using the new MS300 from now on 👍
Hi there, was about to build some little caves for an aquarium using CT1. I just noticed on the back of the tube it says that it 'may cause long lasting harmful effects to aquatic life'. I have seen people using it for aquariums but im wondering am i better of getting a different product?
Although I have never heard of it causing harm to aquatic life ever if it is just for use in an aquarium which is very still and small fish I would probably suggest the HA6 it's not as strong as ms300 or ct1 but it's actually designed for aquariums and its what most fish tanks are stuck together with.
@@keepingitkoi thanks for the reply. I actually managed to email CT1 and got a reply about a new designation for their clear and silver versions. The other versions are not required to carry that warning.
@@keepingitkoi I’m very interested in his new product as fibreglassing isn’t fun nor easy and has many stages to it process unlike CWP new product if successful will definitely have a place in the Market
@Simon Shears yeh definitely looks difficult to apply but I'm sure when you get used to it, it would be OK the only problem I can see with it is if you have curves in the pond trying to get in there with a trowel could be tricky 🤔
It does work best on glass and that's what HA6's purpose is for making fish tanks but ms300 is stronger and better but if done correctly and make sure the glass is thoroughly cleaned with something like isopropyl alcohol then it should work fine 👍
Omg ha6 is for build fish tanks not ponds and when u doing liner repair u meant to key it up then glue it to give then u put silco on the side of it and I olny use the right silicon for the right job ie 10 dift line use glue for that line live it to prows

Thanks for your comment if you get some big wipes from b&q they remove any silicone from ya skin with ease 👌 😉
Ms300 all the way. Just done a trial of it myself, no way would the other 2 have got the same results!

WICKED THANKS 4 THA👍🏼👊🏼
No problem at all bud glad it could help 👍
Hi. Thanks for the video. I just used this CT1 to stick a ledge in a pvc vivarium. How long will it take for the smell to completely go away?
Normally it's completely gone after about 2 weeks but it would depend how thick it is to how long it would take to fully cure the smell Normally goes away about 7 days after it being fully cured 👍
@@keepingitkoi thanks for answering I really appreciate it.
@claudiahenk8048 no problem 😊
Ms300 looks amazing and will probably be buying for my window. You should have tested idealseal ms290 polymer sealant it's supposed to be very good 👍🏻

No problem you'll be amazed how much better it is, I was I seriously wasn't expecting the end result
Great experiment 👍, my first liner was a woven one complete waist of money lasted 4 years then had to completely re line.
Thanks bud yeh there great till they get a hole and then there unrepairable and there knackered 😕
Great test done there!! 👍🏻
Thanks Maureen yeh I was very surprised by the results 👍😊

@bernieone1 oh that's great news and useful to know thank you 😊
Pu18, never had an issue. But that's a window bonded into a fibreglass block frame. What mad man glues a liner to glass !, bodged from the start 😢
This mad man 6 times so far for myself and my customers and so far 100% success rate and mines been going for 18 months now 👍😊
Did say Ms300 would win . Great review 👍🏻
Yes you did I new it was going to be good but not that good I'm very impressed 👍😊

Will Ms300 bond with PVC liner?
Yes as long as its not the woven liner and its been cleaned, but to be honest pvc liner is not the best for cutting and sticking but it will work 👍
@keepingitkoi thanks, i double-checked, and i have acttuly got the rubber liner. So i should be okay with the Ms300.
@@keepingitkoi hey, im having difficulty fitting on the liner to the glass. How can i contact you for some support?
@@zakiikaz1753 did you clean they both thoroughly before sticking them with something like isopropyl alcohol?
Interesting video
Thanks Joyce 👍 yeh was surprised by the results to be honest 😊👍
Ms300 all the way for me 👍
Mee too now 🤣😆👍
Hi would ha6 be ok for a sump on a 4ft marine
Meaning to stick a new bottom on the sump
It does work best on glass and that's what HA6's purpose is for making fish tanks but ms300 is stronger and better but if done correctly and make sure the glass is thoroughly cleaned with something like isopropyl alcohol then it should work fine 👍
What are your thoughts on OB1 v MS 300 ??
I've compared ob1 to ct1 many times with work and ct1 is better so ms300 would still be the better one 👍
Cheers mate 👍
@Mick Stubbs anytime bud 👍
Omg ha6 is for build fish tanks not ponds and when u doing liner repair u meant to key it up then glue it to give then u put silco on the side of it and I olny use the right silicon for the right job ie 10 dift line use glue for that line live it to prows
Thanks 😊
